Episode Summary

[x] Remove Ad
Simon Carter is the new Escape Officer. He gets the idea of concealing men in Colditz as 'ghosts' in order to confuse the Germans about exactly how many men are in the castle at the one time.

The first hiding place is under the pulpit in the Chapel at Colditz and the first two volunteers to be 'ghosts' are Dick Player and George Brent. Unfortunately the French are building a tunnel under the Chapel which is discovered by the Germans. The Chapel is sealed up, and Player and Brent are trapped.

Episode Quotes

Mohn: Allied prisoners are escaping all the time and not just from this camp, whereas German Officers do not seem to escape from Allied hand. (spitefully): Why is that, Ullman?
Ullman: (bland) One may be forced to conclude that German Officers do not wish to escape, Major.

(George Brent and Dick Player are hiding in a hole underneath the font in the Prison Chapel when they hear strange noises coming from nearby):
Brent: There it is again - listen!
Player: It's the foundations.
Brent: Oh, come off it.
Player: (amused) No, it's true - the other night I had a dream - there's so many tunnels under this place the foundations gave way and the whole bloody castle collapsed.
Brent: Be serious, listen!
